Finally, after nearly a month without fishing Pyramid....... I did,........... and a report too !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No, I didn't sail off the edge of the earth.
No, no colds, flu, or other illnesses.
No needed auto repairs.
Yes, a bad streak of weather.
Yes, between weather systems shoveling snow.
Yes, some VERY frigid mornings/daytime temperatures.
So I got the chance to do it to it today !!!!!
I arrived at my favorite "southern beach" @ 8:30, suited up, and was in the water @ 8:45.
There was one other fisherman there and I watched him LDR a fish as I was suiting up.
No strikes, take-downs, or bumps for the first hour for me.
As I was looking around the lake, just to the south of that "southern beach" I frequent, I saw a very large mud line headed our way.
There was a culvert spewing muddy water from the south and the current in the lake was carrying it right towards the beach.
Twenty minutes later the mud-line overtook us and I happend to hook up and land a "rat" just outside the mud-line.
Whew !!!!!!!
At least I wasn't going to go home tonight as a big stinkin' "SKUNK".
The mud-line continued to grow and I'd had enough of fishing in the muddy water so, I decided to move one beach to the north to see what might be going on there.
Glad I did.............
I started fishing a "Cherry Bomb" with a "Midnight Cowboy" balanced leech below it.
Around noon the wind decided to do it's thing too........ way over and above what the forecasters predicted..........It started hootin' from the west for the rest of the day.
I hooked and landed a few fish on that set-up and then it got slow.
"O.k. fishes........wanna' play that way........., I'll switch rigs then".
I went over and grabbed my other rod rigged with two "Cherry Bombs".
I don't know if it was my "dumb luck" or what, but I found that the fish REALLY liked the two "Cherry Bombs" rig today.
I got my belly full of fishing for the day,........ finally........, and "packed it up" @ 5:30 and headed for the car.
Saved the best for last..........................................
My total for the day..............................................
I went 14 for 17 and landed 2 that may have been over the 5 lb. mark (nope, those two don't combine as the 10lb'er Santa forgot to put in my stocking either).
So there you have it again guys and gals, another one of those Pyramid Reports !!!!
